The US-led alliance said it was concerned by Moscow's "hybrid activity" in Czechia, Estonia, Germany, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland and the UK.

NATO has issued a sharp warning over “hostile” Russian activity across Europe.

In a statement released on Thursday, the 32-member military alliance said it was “deeply concerned about recent malign activities” by Moscow, which it called a threat to Western security.

It pointed to “disinformation, sabotage, acts of violence, cyber and electronic interference… and other hybrid operations.”

Czechia, Estonia, Germany, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland and the UK have all been affected, according to NATO.

    Then fucking do something against it! How long will the west and the NATO tolerate the murders, the espionage, the sabotage done by Russia inside our borders? Step up against Putin, show some dignity and start drawing some red lines and enforce them if they are crossed.

    The NATO could start by showing a stronger support for their allies who are supporting Ukraine with equipment and aid. As a german it is painful to watch that we are always hiding behind the fear of beeing declared a “war party” by those fucks in the Kreml. If NATO would declare that they back up all those supporters for Ukraine and that every action against those supporters by Russia would result in Article 5 we wouldn’t have these issues and could provide Ukraine with everything they need…

    But instead we are leaving the Russians free hand in their actions and are wondering why that degenerate Putin is not backing up…

      They should’ve acted like the Cold War never ended because the other side uses the same old playbook, ruled by the people coming from the executive branch: spies, cops, state security, who just can’t think differently, and even in early two thousands acted like that, but not with the confidence they’ve got since that. Europe can’t just throw Ukraine under the carpet like they are talking with a rational entity to save relations or whatever. If they wouldn’t learn from that, wouldn’t act on that, that’d define the survival of these alliances, because no one would ever feel secure in them.
